The best part is that he's not even a good gamer

His Elden Ring build was pathetic in a way that even his fanclub couldn't defend

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 38 points 1 year ago

Int/Dex build, so mostly mage with some weapon skills. Shield in left hand, staff in right with rapier & claws fast switch.

Change armor from heavy to medium for fast roll or tank.

Move talismans around a lot.

Many small hits in a row to damage stack is important.

Summon!

Literally admitting that he uses the "easy mode" button as the cherry on top lmao

That whole thing is genuinely confusing.

The complete lack of coherency and talking about mechanics that do not exist or are not relevant is the kind of thing chatGPT comes up with if you ask it to invent a new build and explain how it works.

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it's all over the place because he doesn't understand any of the game mechanics. Something like "I'm still figuring it out, but I'm enjoying int magic and dex weapons" is what a normal person would say. my-hero has to pretend to be a 1337 gamer to impress dorks on the internet.

[-] CriticalResist8@hexbear.net 44 points 1 year ago

remove all mentions of his name and you'd think they're talking about a 16yo.

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 41 points 1 year ago

I was like this when I was 13. Nice to know the second richest man on earth is a literal racist manbaby.

This man is the father of at least 7 children.

wow he spends some of his free time gaming? that must mean that he's WORKING EVEN HARDER to make those billions in the time he isn't spending gaming. So he's not just making 84684684168146814 dollars per second he draws breath through sheer hard work, he's actually making 18146841941984984984928942928429494982928 dollars per microsecond instead, once you subtract all the gaming where he's not working galaxy-brain

He would be so easy to get riled up. As a certified troll. I would love to talk to him.

Platforms

Android, iOS, Windows, MacOS, Switch, Tesla

Fucker loved this game so much he made sure it ran on his cars data-laughing

[-] CannotSleep420@lemmygrad.ml 16 points 1 year ago

Its certainly on brand for him.

he’s got all the money in the world — enough to do literally anything he wants to do — and he’s still a miserable loser with no satisfaction in his life. amazing microcosm of america and indeed capitalism writ large

Death to America

[-] MerryChristmas@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

It's not a big deal? It's a huge fucking deal, mom. Every time you answer the goddamn phone and disconnect me it counts on a loss on my record. That's fucking permanent, mom. Everyone online is going to think your son is a fucking loser, I hope that's what you wanted.

Gamers may be one thing, but he is an even more wretched creature, he is a mobile gamer.

That just sounds like autism. Y’all don’t get to be ableist just because the target is a billionaire. He won’t see your comments, but your autistic comrades (including me) will.

[-] oregoncom@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Not all autistic people are gmers. Nor is gming addiction something only autistic people get.

[-] edge@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

It's about the response to having your trust betrayed, not games specifically.

[-] JuneFall@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

In the end, it's impossible to say for sure whether Elon Musk has autism without a formal diagnosis. While his communication style and behavior may suggest that he is on the autism spectrum, there are other factors that could be at play.

I don't know if he got autism. For sure there are plenty of other reasons why he acts like that. With labels and without.

If it means anything to you I made a comment about this voicing similar thoughts

[-] edge@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you. And you definitely expressed it better than I did or could have.

[-] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

"Heated G!mer Moments" where someone has to do a racism or a violence under justification of consuming a treat are not far off from "I'm drunk lol" excuses for roughly the same behavior.

It's already horrible people having enough social lubricant to be as horrible as they already were, waiting for expression.

[-] GaveUp@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Fighting with Grimes about this is fucked up but the video game obsession/hyper fixation does seem potentially attributable to his Asperger's tbh

Hate him for being a terrible partner or a deadbeat CEO who prioritizes his video games over meetings with his employees

Not for being an obsessed gamer
